I can’t thank Mr. Plantz enough for all the outstanding work he has done with my Child Custody case. The outcome was what I wanted and now a huge weight has lifted over my shoulders. He really is as great as others say and more! He cares about his clients, advocates for them in every way, and overall does an excellent job as an attorney. If you want the very best, Mr. Plantz is indeed better than the rest!

Robert and his staff have been the best. They actively communicate with me about my concerns and updates on my case. My family has used Robert's services since 2019. He is genuine and ethical while giving his clients a realistic perspective on the outcome of their cases.

Attorney Robert A. Plantz was a beacon of hope to me and my family at a time our options appeared limited and the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution seemed impossible. He was able to defend us from an unjust accusation, with his expert knowledge of the law. Additionally, his courtroom demeanor was professional, calm, confident, and empathetic which offered emotional comfort to me, my sister, and my family. Also, I have recommended Attorney Plantz to others on several occasions and they all had the same experience. My sister and I are indeed grateful for his services and, I highly recommend Attorney Robert A.. Plantz without reservation. Therefore, if you want a winner on your team, choose Attorney Robert A. Plantz and Associates, and you will never regret it!

Hard to even put into words what this amazing lawyer has done for me. He broke the chains that have hindered me for 8+ years. He showed so much care and compassion in dealing with my case, and did not stop....until I got the justice and rights I deserve!!!! Highly recommend him!

I cannot say enough good things about Atty Plantz and his practice. In often high-stress post divorce situations, he was the perfect blend of aggressiveness to my case, patience to my emotional ups/downs and reactivity, and thoughtfulness to our family's unique situations. He even helped implement communication standards that improved interactions tremendously with the ex. His fees were more than fair and he doesn't nickel and dime all the small things. He will be our lawyer for any future issues and I recommend him to people all the time. Staff is super friendly and helpful as well!

These FAQs include information about a lawyer's background, but do not evaluate their knowledge of the law, past performance on individual cases, personality, or communication skills.

It is solely the responsibility of lawyers and law firms to ensure that any information they provide complies with all applicable laws and rules of professional conduct.

You should be aware that the information we rely upon may not be comprehensive, or frequently updated.

Always research the lawyer further to get a better understanding of their license credentials, disciplinary status, background, and experience.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions
